System Verification
choose to load an existing recent calibration that was created by the
verification process. If necessary, refer to the analyzer's on-line embedded help
for information on storing and recalling calibrations.
For each verification device, the analyzer reads a file from the verification disk
and sequentially measures the magnitude and phase for all four S-parameters.
For system verification to perform correctly, it is NECESSARY that the
verification devices be measured with their female connectors connected
to port 1 or 3 and their male connectors connected to port 2 or 4.
Although the performance for all S-parameters are measured, the S

Cable Substitution
The test port cables specified for the network analyzer system have been
characterized for connector repeatability, magnitude and phase stability with
flexing, return loss, insertion loss, and aging rate. Since test port cable
performance is a significant contributor to the system performance, cables of
lower performance will increase the uncertainty of your measurement. Refer to
the plots in the cable tests (earlier in this chapter) that show the performance
of good cables. It is highly recommended that the test port cables be regularly
tested.
